Almost everything is back to normal. We still haven't bought food, but I think that will happen tomorrow.
I didn't get to tell you what happened over the near two weeks of hotel life. I went and met John Green, youtube celebrity, author, and as of this coming week (thanks to the nerdfighters) NYT best seller! I was the coolest thing I've done in a while. His new book, Paper Towns, is absolutely fantastic. You should buy it. It's his third and his best. It can't be put into words how great it is.

I'm home!!!
Power: Check!
Cable: Check!
Phone service: Check!
Internet: Check!
Hot water: Almost check. (its warming up now.)
YAY!!!! Oh, how I have missed my home. The tree has been cut up. We now have firewood for when it gets colder. The hole that was in the side of the house is patched up thanks to our awesome neighbors. (One neighbor said he knew a guy and the guy is one of our neighbors as well.) The guy doing the work is going to stain the new wood and then pressure wash the rest of the house. Right now he is ripping up part of the roof because the previous owners had the roof "replaced". (They just put a layer over the old one. FYI: it was wrong.) Part of our roof will be done properly. We should get the entire thing done, but it will be a lot of money. I cleaned most of the freezer. I need to finish that and get the fridge as well.

Trees
We have this one really big tree just off to the front of the house. Last night while I was at waffle house after the homecoming dance I got a txt saying that part of it fell down. It took the phone lines and cable with it, as well as some of the house. The power company came last night and said they could take the cable lines out, but we had to cut the power and have an electrician come and inspect the house. We also have to deal with the tree ourselves. After a few hours of trying to contact our insurance agent we went to a hotel. That is where I am now. Weee.

Rain.
I love rain. It did cancel the parade, but I hadn't planned on going. I have to get money to Rachel for a ticket to the dance.
I can explain the shortness of this post. I have a headache. Woo.
